    “Children love dinosaurs, robots, aliens, idol singers and yokai monsters,” commented director Akira Shigino. “Will the yokai-packed O-O-O-NO SHINNOSUKE be really popular with kids? I’m both a little nervous and a little relaxed. Shin-chan appears as a yokai and uses their battle techniques. His dignified figure is different from usual. Shin-chan is a lonely yokai looking for his mother. He meets a girl. She tells him her dreams. Their thoughts intersect in the port town.” “He’s a yokai, everyone. Shinnosuke becomes a yokai in Season 4,” commented series showrunner Wataru Takahashi. “Even though he’s just a kindergartner who can call up storms, he’s still a yokai. It’s scary. And funny. In a peaceful port town. Strange things happen all the time. Everyday there’s something surprising. Shinnosuke arrives looking for his mother and meets Fumie, a girl who loves money. They form a tag team to solve the case. How? I can’t reveal that here. Only Prime members can find out. So, go get Prime!” Amazon Prime members can currently watch every episode from all three CRAYON SHIN-CHAN SPINOFF series. In Season 1, ALIEN VS. SHINNOSUKE (????????? ???????vs.?????, Kureyon Shinchan Gaiden Eirian vs. Shinnosuke, 2016), Shin-chan encountered an alien in a drifting spaceship in his first locked-room thriller. In Season 2, TOY WARS (??????????? ????????, Kureyon Shinchan Gaiden Omocha Uoozu, 2016), Shinnosuke joins the Kasukabe Defense Force to fight toys that came to life burning for revenge against the humans who discarded them. In Season 3, LONE WOLF AND FAMILY (??????????? ?????, Kureyon Shinchan Gaiden Kazokuzure Ookami, 2017), Hiroshinosuke takes his family on a journey to spread the Nohara style of butt-swordplay. Each series can also be enjoyed as a 91-minute theatrical version (seven-minute x 13 episodes). ? CRAYON SHIN-CHAN: O-O-O-NO SHINNOSUKE Synopsis A small country town. Recently, the town has witnessed many strange incidents. A yokai kindergartner O-O-O-No Shinnosuke and his yokai father Tamatama Dad arrive in town.

When an elementary school girl Fumie Sakura is suddenly attacked by the mysterious Fuzzy Wuzzy, a superfluous-hair yokai, Shinnosuke goes to her aid. Their encounter is the start of the greatest yokai case in the small town’s history.

    About us

     

    Welcome to SciFi Japan, your source for news and information on science fiction, horror, fantasy and action movies, TV shows and videos.. from classics and old favorites, to upcoming productions and home video releases, to the odd and obscure titles you may never have heard of!

    The mainstream press has largely ignored Japanese tokusatsu (special effects) films, and when the genre has been covered by American news outlets and television the results were often inaccurate and condescending. On the other hand, there have been some excellent fan publications and websites devoted to these films, but Japanese studios have been extremely reluctant to deal with fan groups due to concerns over copyright infringement issues (some fans advocate and promote activities such as video bootlegging and unlicensed downloading). With no direct access to studio news and photos, fan reporting has often been forced to rely on secondhand info and rumors.

    What was missing was a professionally run English news outlet working directly with Japanese studios and filmmakers. So, in 2006, we brought together a talented group of published authors and reporters, film historians, reviewers, festival organizers, and movie makers with ties to the Japanese film industry to launch SciFi Japan (More information on our key contributors can be found here). The only English language news site press registered with all of the major Japanese studios and production companies, SciFi Japan is able to consistently bring accurate and exclusive information on Japanese films and shows to English speaking/reading fans worldwide.

    This site also receives updates from licensees and distributors of Japanese movies in North America, the UK and Australia, and we’re press registered with the major American studios as well. So, while our primary focus remains Japanese llive action and anime news we will rinclude international productions in our "International SciFii" and. "Asian Cinema" sections.

    And in 2012, we launched SciFi JAPAN TV, a web series featuring coverage of tokusatsu events and interviews with Japanese filmmakers. Each episode was shot on location in Japan exclusively for SciFi Japan by the Gaijin Channel production team. 

    SciFi Japan has grown by leaps and bounds over these past few years, and the site will continue to improve. So please bookmark SFJ and check back with us frequently… we’ll do our best to make it worth the effort!
